“Leanissa is hands down the best dog sitter! She stayed at my home for 2 weeks to take care of Kingston and did an incredible job. She followed all care instructions, treated my home with immense respect, and went above and beyond to keep everything clean. She is now my top choice for pet sitting, and I can't wait to book her again! Kingston and I are so grateful for her!!”

“Haley took care of our 5 cats and 1 dog during an overnight visit. All of our kids seemed happy and relaxed when we got home. Our extremely shy cats even came out shortly after she arrived -- this means they felt very safe with her. We were impressed; she has a demeanor that makes pets feel very safe. She took great care of everyone, and also gave medication to one of our cats. She sent several photos of our kids, which we appreciated.”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was little. I’m currently a registered nurse. I love when the therapy animals come by, probably more than the patients do! I am mostly available on weekends and some days during the week! I am an RN so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m off on weekends and holidays! On days that I do work, I’m off usually around 5pm. I am able to spend as much time needed on drop-in days as your pet needs. I will not rush them to eat or go outside.

“Sean is professional and dependable! We have Three dogs, small, medium and large with varied personalities and he took great care of each one. We were gone 4 nights, it was so nice to receive photos and updates each day, something we never got from boarding with a kennel or vet! Communication was great! We highly recommend Sean and we will definitely be calling him again the next time we go out of town.”

About: Have an energetic pup who needs someone who can keep up? I’d love to help! I’ve had my own dog, Dallas, since I was 10, and my family currently has three Boxers, so I’m very comfortable with large, energetic dogs. I love going on walks, playing fetch and tug-of-war, but I’m just as happy to cuddle and relax with your pet. I’ve also regularly pet sat for four families, caring for up to three cats and two large dogs in one home, so I’m experienced with different personalities, routines and needs. I love taking pictures and sending cute updates while you’re away, and I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry friend! I’m a college student at the University of South Carolina with a flexible schedule! My only set commitments are classes: Monday and Wednesday from 2:20–3:35 PM, and Tuesday and Thursday from 10:05–11:20 AM and 2:50–4:05 PM. Everything else is extracurricular and can be adjusted around pet-care needs. Fridays and weekends are completely open, and I’m generally flexible with scheduling. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and find times that work best for both of us! I have a fully fenced in, chain-link backyard where dogs can safely enjoy some outdoor time and play, with supervision. I don’t have a crate, but I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide about where they’re most comfortable resting. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure doors and gates stay secure, supervise outdoor time, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. I’ll also send photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away!

Dogs seemed to have a great time with her here, and we came home to two well cared for pups. Thanks Timia for easing our minds while we were away, and loving on them extra well. If schedules align, we will definitely have Timia back!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was in middle school. For four years, I assisted in end-of-life care for a senior dog along with being a farmhand for two horses. My previous job in Florida was at an animal shelter, and consisted of feeding, cleaning, and medicating up to 40 kittens/cats/dogs a day. I am available any time, any day of the week. I’m currently job searching for a position at a shelter, so in the meantime I would love to meet your animals and make friends! I live in an apartment with my partner and two kittens. I feed them twice a day, with a capsule of Proviable split between them. They are strictly indoor kitties, and I have given them both a flea bath.

“This was our second time using Ken. He is so great and attentive with Chewy and tolerates all of our questions about how she’s doing which is very much appreciated. He is very understanding of her anxiety and general weirdness. It is such a blessing to be able to confidently leave her in his care and not have to be concerned about a single thing.”

Each time we arrive home, it is obvious that our furry kids have felt safe, supported, and have been well fed and well taken care of. We 100% trust Sally to stay in our home and take care of our kids!”

Venetia is a great pet/house sitter! This is the second time she has taken care of my dog / house and she is reliable, responsible and responsive! She sends pictures and responds quickly to questions. She shows up on time and follows all the instructions . My dog is nervous with new people and Venetia’s approach with her had Mabel connect with her quickly! I highly recommend and will use her services again in the future!

Mariah was on time and kept us informed each day with how my pets were doing along with photos. It was obvious from the photos that my cats and dog were very comfortable and happy to be around her. If you are looking for someone who is dependable, cares about your animals, and can be trusted, then she would be a good fit for your pets as well.

FAQs for House Sitting - Dentsville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of House Sitting in Dentsville is $43 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $42 and $49 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 616 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Dentsville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:

  • Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
  • Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
  • Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
  • Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.

The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Dentsville walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.

It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Dentsville maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:

  • Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
  • Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
  • Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.

Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Dentsville choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.

For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.

Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Dentsville. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
